Diktatur des Gewissens

About socialist morality and the understanding of democracy in the editorial team of "Komsomolskaya Pravda", the central organ of the Communist Youth Association of the USSR. The point of reference for the discussions is the planned printing of a note from "Pravda" dated April 22, 1920. It reports on a "trial of Lenin" that was held on his 50th birthday. The editors deal with the material in the way that they "play through" the process, reading out quotes from "socialists" of all shades, and examining the past and present against the truth.
